Overview

• Alien: Earth will premiere on FX and FX on Hulu on August 12, 2025.
• All major components of Noah Hawley’s eight-year pitch survived into the final series, making it the most expensive production in FX history.
• Hawley’s version discards plot elements from Prometheus and Alien: Covenant to place the story in parallel to Alien: Romulus and reset the timeline to 2120.
• The show uses a dystopian Earth dominated by rival megacorporations to explore themes of extreme wealth inequality and climate change.
• Alien: Earth introduces a cyborg antagonist named Kirsh and a human–synthetic hybrid protagonist Wendy alongside previously unseen extraterrestrial creatures recovered from a crashed Weyland-Yutani vessel.
